Harem Protagonist Demo

Anime is a pretty well-established phenomenon nowadays, and it’s been so for a few decades now. However, they are still not very popular in the western world, mainly because they are viewed as childish. Granted, some of them can actually be very childish and difficult to watch, but there are plenty of them that can change your views about the world if you are willing to get past the initial shock.

Harem Protagonist is not a very serious game, on the other hand, and it doesn’t try to be either. Instead, this one is designed to provide you with naughty pictures and a chance to make multiple girlfriends at once, while also winning a show if you happen to be successful. It’s a match made in heaven, at least if you do not mind having to make all sorts of choices in regards to the girls you meet along the way.

You play the role of a young man who also happens to be the narrator, as well as the protagonist of the show. It’s pretty corny, but then again so is the rest of the game. Thus, the whole point is to talk to girls and improve your relationship with them by saying or doing the right things. It’s not as easy as it sounds, but it’s not very difficult to pull off either.

The game is split into days, and you get to make choices every day when it comes to which girls you interact with. Your status with every potential girlfriend is displayed as a simple number, and your goal is to increase it by hanging out with the ones you like best. On the other hand, your time must be split between as many of them as possible, because that’s the whole point of the show you star in.

To make things better, the artwork and the graphics in general are great, and you can tell that the developers put a great deal of effort into this part of the game. Each background is very detailed and unique in its own way, as are the characters. Speaking of which, each girl is animated and designed to look as convincing as possible while still keeping the classic anime style.

When it’s all said and done, Harem Protagonist is obviously not designed to be serious, so you shouldn’t be surprised at the writing and the quality of the dialog. However, the parts that matter are pretty well put together, such as the gameplay, the choice system and the graphics. You can support the development process by backing the game on Kickstarter.
